extra files left after processing ...

Post by Shadowdragon »

Hello,  I've done some searching for 'delete files', and 'post processing' to try and fiind out if there is a way to just be left with the show.  eg. sabnzbd downloaded the new episode of true blood the other day.  it processed it fine, i have the .mkv file, but i also have a .nfo file and the checksum file.  other shows have had more garbage files around it to.  is there something that can be done where i will only have the .mkv file and no other files?

i am running on windows vista, using the version just before 4.11.  I use folder sorting, and everything else is pretty much default. 


thx.

Thank you :)

I followed your link and noticed a small discrepency between the manual page and what is show in your program.  on the general page the example shows this:

".nfo," or ".nfo, .sfv"

on the manual page it shows:

.nfo, .nfo, .sfv

I can see now that when I copied and pasted, that there are quotations around .nfo and that it is not an *  (my eyes not you :)  )

I will now go add quotations around my list as my original line didnt work.

Thx for your quick response :)  I really appreciate your work.

hmmmmmm, when i put quotations around the list and then save the changes, the list dissapears.....

how should i put in the list?  for example i want

.nfo, .sfv, par2

to be deleted as part of the cleanup?  I put it in above without quotes and it saved.

The quotes indicate a literal text, not that you should include the quotes.
Like when I write "He said it was OK".
I can understand the confusion though...
Will fix up the text.
